  1. Edge, Firefox, Google I'm not talking about security but functionality. I still use Firefox because it still have those menus on top. Google ditched those menu and not allowed addons to to that. Download Them All is a great Fire Fox extension. I also use Roboform which means you can't use those other esoteric browsers. I imagine people used IE6 till they couldn't just based on layout. Developers have moved up on my no parachute on a plane list. Bill Maher''s video is an eye opener. Developers just have this warped view of functionality. They are like a home cleaning service that comes in an rearranges you house so you have to search just to find a fork. Extreme torture for me would being forced to use a browser on a phone. Developers are treating desktops users as a dying breed. The #1 rule in needed to be taken outside the city stoned is when developers have to mess with the GUI, they can't leave it alone. When DAW developers do that they ether revert or made a good compromise. (see Reason 13) People still use Kontakt 6 because that's one less click to make K8 easier. Who ever thought that when iTunes came out that our DAWs in plugins are becoming like that.
  2. Only install VST3 and deleting is easier. Their install manager is one of the few that are obedient to user settings.
  3. Please explain as the only reason I would buy this is because I have Falcon
  4. The last Stars Wars with Hamill was the last movie for me I think. The one is Star Wars bad and they went downhill. People have to mess with tradition. I never saw any of the Godfather movies either
  5. NI's has it's share of Mac woes. What you are missing out here is freedom of choice. Often the issue is with the installer. I've deleted everything UAD because their app runs in System startup. Plus it's apples and oranges when it comes to sample libraries. Then there a those who archive their purchases and don't want to download again. Once again it's about leaving the end user with choice
  6. This thread should be in the coffee house. I could break the net about how stupid tech is in every industry. I pretty much despise most developers. That attitude is mostly outside the DAW world. Browsers basically suck in the desktop environment. If all of these ideas are to reduce piracy I think it encourages it.
  7. Free to be a slave to Native Access = easy pass.
  8. This is not really a deal since it requires a sub
  9. I never update NI libraries. Easy to miss the fine print and having to download to use in Kontakt 6. I still like it better then 7 or 8.
  10. How we forget that is how people listen to music or the speaker on their phones. I'm find more joy in playing real instruments since you don't have to boot them up, wait for the plugin scan, ect. I have an old Meinl Weston convertible marching tuba next to me. I put the mouthpiece in, maybe add some valve oil and done. Same with all of the other instruments laying out. No clicking, scrolling. The only thing I can't stand about headphone is those covers. Annoying to replace, or mess with alternatives.
  11. I can't really apply that to VIs. It's just sounds moving on a drive. A Bach 1C,3D, 6C, feel different when playing a trumpet. No sample library will ever reveal that. It is the same with many pianos, guitars, any real instrument. So the feel in not in the instrument but the means of carrying them when it comes to VIs.. To some my philosophy would be considered blasphemy.
  12. I don't get the appeal of large pianos that are larger than a handful of Linux distros. Sure they sound good but outside the DAW world a listener doesn't care.
  13. This is not an Izotope everything bundle but a mixture of plugins from the 3 headed monster. It's an easy pass. Licensing is not consistent either. When they got those Expo verbs the licensing is different.. You can install Izotope on every machine you have while those verbs require iLok and I think they are single seat.
  14. I get the dumping of Syntronik. I never cared for any Sampletron library for other romplers but IK version is so far above the rest. I guess the nest frontier for ST is encourage users to create their own stuff and lessons how to. Then again maybe they realize the rompler thing is a saturated market and not spend resources on it. or do Modo stuff which is more modeling. I love the Modo Bass. It doesn't dent a drive either
  15. it's not like it will be a missed opportunity - they come back
  16. That's why I prefer the option account direct downloads instead of an app. I'm only allowed 1.5tb a month without getting charged extra, Downloading EW HO triggered my ISP of reaching a limit. That also happened a few years ago with TS Max by downloading on 3 systems instead of downloading from my account.
  17. I have hopes after they test the waters they offer a non sub option. Acronis tried this but now they also offer non sub. Most sub prices on anything I rarely agree with and they do go up. I find it annoying people justify a price comparing it to food items on just about everything. Most of those are "luxury" items and I can do without. I can also do without certain DAWs since I seem to collect those like plugins. I stopped using Sonar heavily after 4 but still bought licenses because of their licensing. If that happens again I will buy the newest Sonar.
  18. I think users are overwhelmed with choices. These sales never make sense but how many of them do these days. I'm happy that they haven't ditched Kontakt all together.
  19. I wasn't impressed as much with the latest Komplete Ultimate. Some of it was loops put in Kontakt. The best part was upgrading to Kontakt 8 since I couldn't stand 7. I don't think I've ever really dived into Komplete other than the installation. It's that habit of always using 3rd party.
  20. Code worked as now I bought Atheria
  21. Do it. I;m thinking of making a thread about the Epic Bundle. I just unzipped the Epic Dohl and watched the video. Maybe I will take all of these libraries and create one project.
